The kids really enjoyed this filling in chocolate cupcakes. I didn't try it myself as I am on the South Beach Diet, but if the kids are happy, I'm happy. Thx for sharing.

I'm 23 years old and I live in Trinidad. One of the islands in the Caribbean.
I love baking and have a major sweet tooth but I am trying to cook more savoury foods and I am enjoying trying new recipes.
Recently I have come to love photographing the food I make. Too bad they don't all come out photo worthy, but at least they still taste good! lol
